Small correction, ceph-nano does not use loopback devices, it runs
"ceph-osd --mkfs" on a directory and optionally can take block device
if provided.
As gaps I can see:

* cephadm does not have multi-clusters support. With cn you can run as
many clusters with any Ceph version.
* cephadm only runs on Linux, where cn can run on any OS that has a
Docker daemon running

Otherwise, I'm fine with archiving the repository. However, there is
still a lot of interest, I'm frequently getting e-mail about it so we
should make it clear that cephadm replaces it.
Also, are we ok to lose the audience of non-Linux users? I believe it
makes a good portion of the user base.

FYI I just archived https://github.com/ceph/cn-core which goal was to
use a Golang based bootstrapper instead of the demo.sh script from
ceph-container.
